[QUOTE="isaiahsdad, post: 1311170, member: 6463"] Just got done reading the original transcript of Contact, by Carl Sagan. I found it in .pdf format on the web and turned out to be a really good book. Had spelling errors and grammatical errors so this copy had to be the one he submitted to be proof read to the author. At the end it had thank yous and even mentioned Ann Druyan as being his co author for the book back in 80-81. Druyan of course being his wife. Anyhow, I really enjoyed the book, much much different than the movie which I thought was equally good. I think they should do a remake of the movie but stick closer to the book this time. Sad that Carl died at such a young age. He was quite a brilliant man who had a lot to offer the science world. Now to the question at hand. I am looking for another good scifi book to read. Read Enders Game before Contact, both on my iPad and am looking for something along the same line. Any good scifi books out there? Never have been much of a reader, but have found myself enjoying it, as long as the book can keep my attention. That has always been my problem, finding an interesting book, and finding the time to read it. Now it seams I have the time, so, any suggestions?? I have the Kindle app, as well as iBooks on my iPad, which is really handy. I can also view .pdfs which I have found particularly usefull in finding gun manuals, lawn mower parts lists, even A.R. Drone instructions. So, let me know what you think [/QUOTE]
